Thanks SeaDweller

I've wanted a black submariner ever since I first saw one; about 4 years ago now.
Its my holy grail, if you will.
Having said that, I've been bitten by the bug and cant stop looking at what else it around.

The Sub is my all time fave Rolex and I would love to partner it with a SS/WG Daytona and a Platinum Day Date!!!
